Following a request from the County Area Committee for the Harrogate District a review of ‘the need for and alignment’ of the adopted relief road was commenced in late 2016. 2.2 As an early part of this study, initial modelling and appraisal was undertaken on various potential relief road options based on work originally carried out in the early 1990’s (see Figure 1 below.) This showed that of the alignments, the two inner relief road options provided the greatest benefits in terms of traffic relief. 2.3 As a result of development pressures, and based on information available from the initial consideration of relief road alignments the Executive recently resolved to rescind the protection of the Harrogate Northern Relief Road and a section of the Killinghall Bypass. The remainder of the Killinghall Bypass remains an adopted route. Figure 1 - possible relief road options considered in the 2017 Options Assessment Report 2.4 As an integral part of the study, work was also undertaken by the County Council’s partner consultant, WSP on looking at a range of other potential approaches for tackling congestion in Harrogate and Knaresborough (study area set out in Figure 2 below).
